Lucky is one of eight playable characters in Whacked!, and one of the first four default characters.
Bio[]
When Lucky was a pup (or whatever you call young rabbits), he was a cute, cuddly, friendly little fellah. Sold at a pet store to a good-luck-charm factory, Lucky's life became one of hard knocks and missing limbs. Knocked out, he awoke to find all four of his paws missing. He escaped only to return and torch the place. Setting out to retrieve his missing feet, Lucky has so far attained three of the four. But one remains, and it's in the possession of one of the other contestants. Who is it and what will Lucky do to them when he finds it? Only one way to find out, Play!
Role[]
A majority of his time on the gameshow is spent searching for his final foot, promising to display his true potential for violence and chaos once he has all of his feet back. Alongside the search for his final foot, he passes his time outside the contest by starting fights with the other contestants and even Van Tastic himself.
Lucky is one of the main reasons the weapons in the game float beside the contestants.
Prior to his audition, he had all four of his paws removed to be used as good-luck charms, one of his paws currently owned by Van Tastic. He's reclaimed three of his four feet and swears to regain his fourth one since then- currently unaware of Van's possession of it.
In Lucky's ending, Lucky's failure to find his final foot is compensated by winning a prosthetic gadget known as the "Rabbit's Foot of DEATH". This weapon grants him a flamethrower, a machine gun and various other weapons all together in his arm.

Personality[]
Lucky has a belligerent and explosive attitude, intending to frighten or intimidate his enemies. A majority of his time is spent getting into fights with the other contestants and even the host, possibly making him the most appropriate contestant for the game show. He speaks in a thick Scottish accent and uses various slang to antagonize people.
Despite his ruthless attitude, he can be exceptionally cunning and even manipulative, being able to trick people into behaving the way he wants them to. These moments are often when interacting with either non-aggressive characters or possibly to entertain himself when he's bored.
There are even rare occasions for Lucky to still have his kindhearted personality despite what happened to him in the Good Luck Charm factory (as shown with Charity). He may have a violent temper and is not afraid to hurt someone severely, but at the same time he knows who to hurt/not hurt.
Appearance[]
Lucky is a rabbit. His fur is predominantly burgundy/scarlet while his underbelly, snout and inner ears are cream. He has a pair of large buck teeth, contradicting his row of razor sharp, carnivorous teeth. His eyes are hazel and both of his ears end in three pointed ends, resembling tatters.
His arms and legs end in stumps due to his amputated feet, each stump covered by dried blood-stained bandages. Despite his inability to hold weapons as a result, he is still able to walk properly on his stumps.
Relationships[]
A majority of his relationships are negative due to his violent attitude, as well as fairly brief.
He decides to manipulate and provoke Eugene by tripping him over and blaming the latter's incompetence for it. Lance joins in on the fun and helps Lucky to frustrate Eugene until he explodes at the rabbit, catching everyone by surprise with his boldness. He slugs at Eugene, only to miss and knock Lance out, while Eugene accidentally bumps him into the game show sign and Lucky is electrocuted, rendering him unconscious.
Another time, he overhears Charity mention her Bunny Foot and intends to steal it for himself. When she refuses to share it, Lucky outwits her with a candy piñata and snatches it while she's distracted. only to find out that it was a chicken's claw.
Trivia[]
- Lucky has a very brief bit of depth during his interview, where he quietly laments about how everybody asks him "What's it like being a rabbit with no feet?", and that nobody asks him "How's your summer?" or "Can you read us some of your poems?", suggesting that he writes poetry in his free time.
- Lucky was apparently supposed to be granted his feet and hands in his end, according to conceptual designs by Jeff Carlisle (Seen Above)
